How much does it cost to travel from Wakefield to Cumbernauld by car?

The journey, fueled by petrol, comes to £38.2. In this calculation, we've assumed a petrol price of 143 pence per liter and the car's petrol consumption at 37.5 miles per gallon.

For those considering carpooling, with two passengers, the cost per person is £19.1 (£38.2/2). With three passengers, the cost reduces to £12.73 per person (£38.2/3). And for four passengers, it further decreases to £9.55 per person (£38.2/4).

To break it down further, here's how we arrive at the result:

The fuel required is determined by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption. For a journey of 220.36 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 220.36 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 26.7 liters of fuel needed.

The fuel cost is then calculated by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. For 26.7 liters of fuel at 143 pence per liter, the total comes to £38.2.

In conclusion, the fuel cost from Wakefield to Cumbernauld amounts to £38.2.

 

Driving habits can have a significant impact on car fuel consumption. Some explanations are below:

  1. Acceleration and Deceleration: Aggressive driving habits such as rapid acceleration and frequent hard braking can lead to increased fuel consumption. Smooth, gradual acceleration and deceleration are more fuel-efficient.

  2. Speeding: Driving at high speeds consumes more fuel due to increased aerodynamic drag. Maintaining a moderate and consistent speed can help conserve fuel.

  3. Idling: Leaving the engine running while parked or waiting unnecessarily burns fuel. Turning off the engine when stationary for extended periods can help reduce fuel consumption.

  4. Air Conditioning Usage: Running the air conditioning system at maximum settings can increase fuel consumption. Using the AC sparingly and opting for natural ventilation when possible can save fuel.

  5. Overloading: Carrying excessive weight in the vehicle, such as heavy cargo or unnecessary items, can increase fuel consumption by putting additional strain on the engine. Removing unnecessary weight can improve fuel efficiency.
